Testimonials – Mini BREAKS dance

When your child has a wide range of diverse interest, all of a sudden you find yourself doing guesswork. So I encouraged her to communicate what she’d like to try most. Ballet was her answer. But those “twirls” were usually followed by energetic moves, that only left her right back on the floor. I said, “You’re always sliding and spinning on the floor. Do you want to breakdance??” She was quick to say YES! This led me to find @minibreaksdance taught by world renown Massive Monkees b-girl, Anna Banana Freeze!

The plan is to take her to as many test runs that her young heart is desiring to understand, and then have her decide. As parents, we all want to nurture the heck out of our kids passions, but often times we trap them into doing things that only we’re interested in. We forget that kids can make their own path—so we just need to detect it and provide them access to further explore it.

So here’s my girl, b-girling before class! Thank you again, Anna🙏🏼 It was nothing short of fun, engaging, and welcoming of creative self expression!!

I’ve taken my 5-year old son here three times now for the Mini Breaks class with Anna Banana Freeze. While he has had varying levels of participation due to his mood, I’ve found that Anna is an AWESOME teacher for this age range of 3-5. She is able to get the kids to focus, be engaged, and have fun, while teaching basic (very basic) breaking moves. What I especially like is her emphasis that not everyone has to participate in the individual cipher each time, and makes them feel okay about being shy that particular day. The pressure is off and they can have fun, at whatever level, they feel like at that moment.
